The Radian Talon 45/90 2-Lever ambidextrous competition safety selector kit in red gives your race gun a functional upgrade with a shot of color to match. Red levers stand out sharply against a black receiver and mark your competition rig at a glance across a crowded staging area. The color is deliberate, and so is everything underneath it.
Competition rewards small efficiencies repeated many times. A safety that sweeps cleanly without breaking your grip is one of the cheapest of those efficiencies to buy.
Built for Competition: the Radian Talon 45/90 2-Lever Kit
Like every Talon from Radian, it is built around an innovative modular core. Rotate the shaft 180 degrees inside the lower receiver and the selector converts between a standard 90 degree throw and a 45 degree short throw, the setting many competitors prefer for a faster first shot off the buzzer.
Two levers come in the kit, one short and one long. That lets you run a full length paddle on the thumb side and a low profile lever on the knuckle side, or whatever combination suits your grip and your division.
Match shooters tend to converge on the short throw with a long strong side paddle, but stage positions and awkward ports change that calculus quickly. Having both profiles in hand means you can adjust between matches without ordering anything.
Red also serves a practical purpose beyond looks. In a rack of similar black rifles, colored controls make your gun instantly identifiable, which matters at a busy match with shared bays.

Specifications and Durability
The levers mount through a precision machined dovetail interface secured by a spring loaded retention stud, which is exactly the kind of detail that matters over a long season. Screw retained levers on lesser selectors need periodic checking and thread locker, and they still find ways to back out at the worst moment.
Reliability is what really sells the Radian Talon 45/90 2-Lever design to match shooters. A control that cannot loosen is one fewer variable on a stage, and a stage has quite enough variables already.
Aircraft grade aluminum keeps the levers light where it counts and strong at the dovetail interface. The red anodizing is applied evenly and holds up to solvent, sweat and the constant contact a competition safety receives.
Compatibility covers most semi automatic AR-15 and AR-10 or SR25 pattern rifles plus MCX and MPX platforms, so the same setup carries across your match guns and your practice rifle. Our build kits and receivers category has the lowers and parts to match.
Installation, Setup and Care
Choose your throw before installation, since shaft orientation determines whether you get 45 or 90 degrees. Fit the levers to their dovetails, confirm each retention stud clicks fully home and reinstall the detent and spring.
Function check the rifle unloaded and then dry practice the actual manipulation you will use under a timer. Watch for any contact between the lever and your firing hand as you build a full grip.
Left handed and support side shooting are where the ambidextrous layout pays off. Shooting around a barricade on your weak side should never require breaking your firing grip just to find the safety.
Maintenance is trivial. Keep the detent channel clean, lubricate the shaft lightly during routine cleaning and confirm lever seating during your prematch inspection. Built from premium materials, it will outlast the season and several more after it.
Faster off the buzzer and easier to spot in the rack, the Radian Talon 45/90 2-Lever competition kit earns its place. Ships direct to your door, no FFL required.
